If your code is in 'C' you could use a table/array of function pointers, I don't know how to do that in Obj-C.

I'm developing a program that includes a unit converter which, among other things, can convert from any one of five temperature scales to any of the other five temperature scales. The code is hard to maintain, unfortunately, as I use a rather long conditional (with multiple sub-conditionals) to determine the "to" and "from" scales.

Is there some (elegant) way to use a matrix-like setup (a two-dimensional selector or even an array?) that, given two arguments (a range of five numbers, for each of the temperature scales) will execute a different one of 25 equations or selectors?

Take care,
Andrew Merenbach
